Introduction to Wonder & Waiting
Advent is a four-week period in the traditional Church calendar that invites us to anticipate, prepare, and reflect on the profound gift of Jesus’ birth.
As women of faith, we want to approach the Advent season with our whole selves — including the part of us that is work oriented. That’s why we created this devotional. We want to invite you to enter a space of wonder and waiting with God, holding in tandem the mystery of Jesus’ birth and the mystery of how He’s using you on this earth right now. They are not separate. And perhaps this season has something to offer you that permeates into your work life too.
Reflection:
- Consider how God is at work in your work right now.
- Can you remember a time when God was leading and present in your work?
- Ask God to open your heart and mind to all He has for you this season.
